Umm... but you don't have to change anything to acchieve this. That's already what we have now. U-Boot never does anythingonit's own - it only performs the commands you give it. If you do not send a command to U-Boot to perform a TFTP download it will not do anything - it will just wait for your commands.

So in this kind of systems we may have TFTP server in u-boot.

This makes absolutely no sense to me. You are wasting your efforts here. If you want to be able to control U-Boot remotely, then just do it - either obver the serial console interface, or using netconsole over Ethernet. This is actually much more flexible than the solution you have in mind - and you don;t have to spendany efforts on it because it's all already available.

Please let me know if this is clear.

It is clear to me, but I think it's based on a misunderstanding on your side of how U-Boot works.
